Private controls on land use include

Building codes are regulations set by government authorities to ensure safety standards in construction and renovation. While they govern how buildings must be constructed, they are not a form of private control but rather a public regulatory measure, thus making them irrelevant in the context of private land use controls.

Zoning refers to municipal regulations defining how property in specific geographic zones can be used, such as residential, commercial, or industrial designations. Zoning laws are established by local governments to manage land use in the public interest and do not represent private controls on land use, as they are enforced by public agencies.

Floodplain management involves public policies and regulations aimed at minimizing flood risks and protecting natural resources within flood-prone areas. This is a governmental strategy rather than a private control mechanism, focusing on broader ecological and safety concerns rather than individual property rights.
